Hello
Get out the abacus and count this A funny story with a dark twist The target so big that you can't miss Me Composing And every page I turn I want more I never know the next thing in store 'Cause you excite me like a locked door Does Like a liquid I want to take your voice and drink it There doesn't seem to be a limit To all the things that I could do I know how I want it to go I know how I want it to be Don't make me think before I speak Or make me hold my horses Hold tight We saddled up if you can ride light If you just think it then you'll be fine Fingers crossed that it's the right time This time Through a fat swamp We can visit for a fun romp I really want to do the high jump Taking a risk will do us all some good I know how I want it to go I know how I want it to be Don't make me think before I speak Or make me hold my horses I've got my eye on the prize (Look at my eyes) My beady eyes are alight (They're alight) And though I don't know what comes next I will not hold my horses Hello Get out the abacus and count me A funny feeling says I won't be The target so big that you can't miss Me I know how I want it to go (I want it to go) I know how I want it to be (I want it to) Don't make me think before I speak Or make me hold my horses I've got my eye on the prize (Look at my eyes) My beady eyes are alight (They're alight) And though I don't know what comes next I will not hold my horses I know what you're thinking I know how you see me Although it hurts You're probably right |

Where's the bone, where's the sack?
Where's these things of mine? Pack them up, put them out, Coz there's not much time. Oh, I didn't know That you had feelings, too. Oh, I never thought That I was king of you. Where's the shame in my case, As I've fallen down? To the drug, to the floor In an eager pout. Oh, I didn't know How alone you'd be. And I never knew How much I'd have to need. |

Your milky black eyes,
resting on me. Your hand's like paper, on my knee. I kneel at your chair, until you stay. But we will all go This way. The end of your days, will happen here, in this old house, and with no fear. This way, I know, This way. |

Come now, come and mourn me
It's so easy Now I'm gone My old bones are growing new bones All the moments That you send I say that I don't need you Don't come and tell you What I should And I'll break all our babies Before they happen Before they would Do not fret 'cos I won't come back I know my place And it's not here Come now, come and mourn me It's so easy Now I'm gone Will I do? |

You know and I know
How we work and how we hope We get all tied up You made some magic You didn't even try Fell out of your eyes Then I did too You counted ten on one hand today My fingers get in the way I get all tied up You know and I know How we work and how we hope We get all tied up I drag my feet and drag us down Don't want me around To tie you up |

Oh
Do you remember All the seconds You are awake Yes We take a lantern And we go back To your place Oh I won't abandon My foolish notion It's too much fun Though You say it's all right You do not ask me what I've done Are we To make an effort How might I weave it (???) And count each one I know 'Cos I can do it And when I've done it I will have won Why Can't I abandon I need a random (???) The wrong idea I need To make an edit I need to change how I appear I don't doubt I know you know me It's about The words that throw me Stammer a line Burn out of change There's ink on your hands And a tear on your page Half-found intentions are met with a frown The simplest plans can drag you down I don't doubt I know you know me It's about The words that throw me I don't doubt I know you know me It's about The words that throw me Tell me Why does it matter If there's no pattern To what we do I know That only logic When there's magic Between me and you All Of a sudden Now you are hidden From my view How Do I get you back And make an old love New I don't doubt I know you know me It's about The words that throw me I don't doubt I know you know me It's about The words that throw me |

There's a man in the street
Who tells me that he loves me God is everywhere He says he lives above me I know more about this man Than i know about you Further than we go In what we go through We are small We are small people (x4) There's a day in a month When I know why we're here And no one drags us down When you flip my gear My mother doesn't love you Even though she tries I told her so many things I forget the lies We are small We are small people (x4) You will take the whole of me (x8) The whole of me |

Teach me the way
To be humble and good To be quiet when I should To be great I am not what I was Or what I will be There is no one guessing for me There's a draft like a well And a warm wet smell And there is no one to break the fall It's so patient and meek And your mouth never speaks Of the times when our hopes die There's a draft like a well And a warm wet smell And there's no one to break the fall Teach me the way To be humble and good To be quiet when I should To be great |
